Lax Landscaping No More

A Rolling Stone Gathers Some Moss

Soft Focus

Our neck of the woods is so private we barely spend time landscaping it. I hate an overly manicured look, and it shows. I'm more of a naturalist, which is why we have lots of moss and areas that we've allowed the flora take over.

Not everyone buys into this semi-anarchistic philosophy. But when your house is on the market, you play by the rules and mow the foot-high grass now and then. Yesterday we added our share of gasoline-driven noise and poison to the neighborhood. Today we'll do a little weed-whacking, although I prefer scissors.
